    Pagan as in the old creeds where sacrificing human beings and virgins was a thing?

      Modern Paganism doesn’t observe any sacrificial practices. It’s an amalgamation of several ancient religions.

        Essentially it’s a reconstructional movement, leaving out the less palatable things and that is fine. But the dark bits are there and should be recognized, which is something most pagans won’t do. Pagan religions were bloody and cruel, which was why christianity stamped it out as it dis, mostly because it carried a notion of repent and forgiveness.
